Earliest SimCity Series Memory...
johndoh4 replied to enemyone's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
My first experience with Sim City was Sim City 2000 on the Mac when I was visiting my Uncle in Chicago (a couple years before Sim City 3000 came out). I had already been somewhat interested in city planning, but when I found out about Sim City it was like one of those moments in the movies where you see the pearly gates and a choir is singing in the background, only it was the monitor that was glowing and I imagined the choir. I bought Sim City 2000 for the PS1 when I got back home. -
This is Drake Island, population 8,200. Its in a rather remote part of my region. Full Size Image Link: img175.imageshack.us/img175/2238/drakeislandapr290712675.png

Here is the same region with the city and mayor names for some laughs and giggles.

Its a work in progress, and the transportation network is a bit off. Just got my first stage 8 (I think) comercial building McClellan Inc. Pop 1,410,967.

Its one of my smaller cities, but I like the way the CBD developed in this one.

Here are a few closeups of some of my cities:

Question About Storing Region Folders on the Hard Drive
johndoh4 posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Does anyone here know if its possible to store your region folders on a drive on the hard disk other than the system drive (usually known as the C drive), and have the game load them from there? I'm somewhat curious because I'm running out of space on my C drive, and it would be nice to save a couple hundred megabytes on my system drive. It seems to always default to My Documents/Sim City 4/Regions, without any choice in the matter. -
Your highest population on a medium city tile?
johndoh4 replied to Randomtaskk's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I had one on a medium tile with 450,000 people, which was the largest city I've ever had until it got deleted due to some bugs. I have one now on a large tile with 325,000. -
CBD at dusk.

I don't use a lot of mods, so its probably not as impressive as the others in this thread.
-
Heres mine. I currently don't use any mods, or add-ons. I used to have some larger cities, but I lost them due to a virus some time ago, and then again to file corruption due to using some mods, which is probably why I'm afraid of using the NAM. Residential Pop: 130,000 Commercial Pop: 55,000 Industrial Pop: 9,900

Future of SimCity Official Discussion Thread
johndoh4 replied to Compromise's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
It would seem for now that the Sim City series is doomed. Its too bad because it didn't have to happen this way. EA games seems to be more interested in making Sim City more like The Sims, then expanding on Sim City 4. -
What is your favorite architecture is
johndoh4 replied to Astroman's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
I like Gothic architecture. My university has some buildings built with Gothic architecture, and I find them to be really interesting. -
I think their of Vancouver, Canada.
-
It may not be the best, but my favorite skyline is Cleveland, Ohio (United States). Veiw from Lake Erie I like how they light the Terminal Tower up like a Christmas Tree During the Holidays. A little south of Downtown at night.
-
455,000 on a medium size map is my most populated city, and by far my most dense. My most populated region is the same region with 1.4 million.

Hmmm......can't figure out what he's getting at. Are those houses B.A.T. structures possibly?
